Dear Benj Clews

In 2008, Yukon sent me a private message saying you guys were making a FWFR book and asking for my permission to include some of my FWFRs.

He said in that message that payment would be a free copy of the book if you guys managed to find a publisher.

So just wondering - did any of my reviews make it into the book? And will you honor that agreement (ie will I be receiving a free copy of the book)?

Cheers

Boydegg

ps - sorry in advance if this is in the wrong forum.

Thanks, Chocolate.

I just received an email from Benj today - over the moon!



You are welcome.

And according to the email I got from Benj, "a number" of my reviews are going to be in the book. I'm thrilled!

Nice to see you again, Tori. And I would shred my copy of the FWFR book if you weren't in it!

Good luck with bringing your 'news' to fruition.



Thank you very much!

You're so sweet, thank you! The family is great...they are growing up so fast. Philip will be 8 this year, and Gracie will be 5. And, we are hoping to have 'news' sometime this year. :)

How are you?

I was surprised to get an email, I always considered myself a 'quantity versus quality' reviewer...considering the talented company I keep here! We plan on purchasing the book- and we are thrilled! It's also made me re-evaluate the fact that I've been 'too busy' to do it in quite a while...

I was just thining last night that the FWPT section of the forum would make an excellent 'chapter' of the book ... or even a book on its own.




Benj and I asked the book editors if they wanted a chapter on porn and celebrity sex tapes. They said no -- we don't want to scare away any soccer moms.



I don't want to sound like a total fuddy duddy but I wouldn't feel comfortable telling a lot of people I know about the book with those in there! It just isn't conducive to my personality. So I'm bummed for anyone who wanted them in there, but I'm a bit glad (selfishly!).

Holey moley - I checked my e-mail and there it was: a message from Benj wanting my information!

...for a restraining order, but still...

Actually, it was for info in teh book! I'm-a innit! WOOHOO!!

Oh, God, I'd love to get at least ONE review of mine published in the book! I haven't managed to review as many films as I'd like to over the many years I've been a contributor to the site, but I've always tried to aspire to quality/wit over volume. As an unashamed devotee of the pun, FWFR is my all-time favorite website...

I'll keep hoping...



Wow! Punz! Nice to see you here.
